Original pictorial wrappers; 43, [3] pp. Small private owner signature to title; old bookstore mark inside rear wrapper; small restoration to upper edge of rear wrapper; else about very good. First edition of this long satirical poem which takes aim at the saccharine pathos of various literary contemporaries: "The epigrams, parodies, and feuilletons of Teofilis Tilvytis are filled with laughter. T. Tilvytis laughed at tearful sensuality, romantic literary stamps, saccharine poetry. In his poem "I?pardavimas d??ios" (1928), wearing a clown's mask, he parodied the work of Romantics and Symbolists, such as Maironis, Faustas Kir?a, Kazis Binkis, Putinas, Balys Sruoga, etc. The neurotic state characteristic of the Expressionists is here broken down into geometric lines that deliberately destroy the illusion of reality."
